Sounds Like Radio

March 3, 2005 4:37 PM

Sounds Like Radio "casting you the best in new music; transcending oppressive style and genre restrictions; unleashing the world's musical underground". Sort of a music blog, presented as radio shows. There's all kinds of interesting music here, from all kinds of genres, most-all from unsigned acts. Surprisingly varied, and good.

Good music can only be quiet for so long. Clear Channel missed the point.

This is excellent.

Allow me to post the obligatory link to one of my favorite music blogs, just because.

Nice link. I am enjoying Fresh #9 as I type. Thanks, biscotti.

As an aside, another music blog I enjoy is The Cool Out, which doesn't have the cool radio show format like this does, but is still fun.

I don't know if this is the best music blog, but it has the best name.

Are they off the air now? My GOD, we KILLED them!

Oh no! Hey dude, we liked your site so much we killed it! Sorry about that. (I guess I'm behind things a bit, but I find this to be very much the logical future of music. At least music that isn't the of the pop juggernaut variety, anyway. Now if we can only get the poor guy's site back up. Oops.)

Yup..andrew from soundslikeradio here...until Friday I'd been averaging 10-20 hits per day. For the 24 hours that was Friday? Over 1000!

Thanks so much for visiting the site, and for your great comments.

Not happy with my web host. They seem to be ignoring my pleas for help. Will get the site back up asap.

PS. anyone know of a good UK web host? :)

We're with you, smiles. Don't limit yourself to the UK. Bring the music back! Great shows!

Well that's pretty cool I must say. Sorry we broke your site, smiles, but it's your own fault for having such a good one!

Damn!

Smiles, why post your question at AskMe?
posted by taz at 10:45 AM on March 5, 2005

oops. I meant "why not"...
posted by taz at 10:55 AM on March 5, 2005

Well, i'm back!

The webhost still hasn't told me why they took my site away from me, but too bad. I signed up with another host, and am back in action once again.

Thanks folks!
